PDM Constructors / Durapods to provide pre-manufactured bathrooms for The Penn State Health Lancaster Medical Center
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- PDM Constructors / Durapods, a Pennsylvania based manufacturer of factory-built bathroom pods, will be providing pre-manufactured bathrooms to Barton Malow Alexander Joint Venture for the Penn State Health Lancaster Medical Center. The new five-story building will feature 129 private inpatient beds, an emergency department, specialty inpatient services, an imaging lab, complete medical and surgical capabilities and an attached medical office building for outpatient services. PDM/Durapods will be manufacturing 132-bathroom pods for this project.
Pre-fabrication Practices Reduced Construction Timeline
Utilizing pre-manufactured bathroom pods for this project will improve the progression of construction while maintaining a high level of quality. It will also help provide a greener solution since traditionally, pre-fabrication reduces material waste. A win-win for the health center.
Durpods is very excited to be working with Barton Malow Alexander Joint Venture on this important project in Pennsylvania," said Craig Melograno, President at PDM Constructors / Durapods. "We feel we have the ability to provide a POD that is far superior to what has been traditionally available in the US which will be a great benefit at Penn State Health Lancaster Medical Center," added Melograno.
Penn State Health partnered with architectural firm HKS, along with Barton Marlow Alexander Joint Venture for the Lancaster Medical Center which, once open, will provide the Lancaster and York county regions access to high-quality, comprehensive health services. The hospital is scheduled to open in summer 2022.
